Hi,

 

welcome @Anonymous.autodesk.com!

 

>> Autocad giving Low memory(running out of memory)

Which version of AutoCAD do you use, which operating system do you have, how much memory is built in into your system and how complex are your drawing (10 constraints, hundreds or thousands)?

 

Without these info's we can't say anything helpful, a drawing with your issues would be great to see too. 😉

Dear Sir,

We using Auto Cad 2011 version with windows 7 Ultimate edition with 4 GB
system memory.
About constraints, we use nearly 500-600 constraints in a drawing file and
simultaneously 4-5 such files are open during working. Also note we apply
these constraints only for 2D drawings.

Regards

Ravi

Hi,

 

>> with 4 GB system memory.

Assuming you are on a 64bit operating system (and not 32bit): 4GB means you are on the absolute lowest limit of the CAD on an 64bit OS.

 

>> 500-600 constraints in a drawing file and
>> simultaneously 4-5 such files are open during working

This means your files are used in a way that needs more than the "absolute minimum" of memory.

 

In case you do have a 32bit Windows 7 you probably need to change to 64bit and you have to build in more memory.

 

>> Also note we apply these constraints only for 2D drawings.

Doesn't matter, the constraints are only working 2D (in AutoCAD).
